The members Of the Car-builders' Club show
commendabe activity in discussing safe car
heating devices. Doubtless they will presently
hit upon something that will answer perfectly,
But most Of the inventions spoken of thus far
are fatally defective in that they contain fro
and arc attached TO the car. 1t is certain that
no device containing flames, or hot Goals, or
anything of that kind, could always be abb
solutely relied upon not to break in case of ac-
cident. Steam from some source is the thing
The wise inventor will start with that idea.

1t is positive gain in behalf Of decency and
good morals that the notorious Tom Gould
the dive-keepcr, has had to flee from the city
For years he defed the law here owing to some
mysterious influence which he possessed over
those In authority; and although he will now
probably escape the penalties of his INSIDE
neanois, the town Is at least rid of him. 1t is
evident that the influences " which shielded
Gould so long have at last yielded to other
considerations and determined to let Justice
Overtake him. We hope this incident may be
considered as an indication of improved senti-
ment in NewYork, public, private and official
The means of National defence now under
consideration by Congress are summed up and
explained in THE TRIBUNE's Washington
dispatches this morning. 1t will be evident to
the most casual reader that while the Repub-
hcan Senate realizes the cOuntry's needs and
sets honestly and ntelligcntly to work to pro-
vide for thomas witness its three important
Army. Navy and Notifications bills the Dem
ocratic House hesitatcs, hedges and does not
know how TO act. Indeed the leading Dem
ocratic Representatives daily lay themselves
open to the suspicion that they don't want
to do anything.
1t is not strange that Juror at the Unger
murder trial cried out with horror when the
prisoner told how he killed his roommate A
more shocking story has rarely been related in
court by the chief actor in it. What the ver-
dict will be it is of course, impossible to pre-
dict. IL the confession Of Ungcr is doubted, he
must be convicted; If it is believed, he must be
EY1ittcc. KS OWE statements seem to leave
20 chance for verdict at any point between
these extremes. Yet it will be shock TO the
moral sense of the community if the man who
calmly chopped his victim TO pieces, even if he
nd the killing in self-dcfcncc, is allowed to 20

An increase IN the legal fees in the Registers
Oflicc appears to be necessary in order to put
The Office on a paying basis. Last year Register
Reilly made a net profit Of about $75 900, but
under the salary system there will be
large deficiency. Deputy Register Martin says
that this may reach $4,000 this year. 1t does
not appear that this is tac fault Of Register
Slcvin. Under tho system of "worlSing the
Office for all it was WORTH" no attention was paid
deal with the city they refuse to pay cent
moro than the legal charge, and it is misde
p,canor to charge more. There is no longer any
extra charge for cxpediting business, and the
aggregate annual receipts from searches show
. probable falling of Of $4,000. Tho city
ought to be put to no expense in maintaining
